#WATCH | On India vs Pakistan match in Asia Cup 2025, former Cricketer and West Bengal Sports Minister Manoj Tiwary says, "...I am boycotting the India vs Pakistan match as well as Asia Cup because I cannot watch this. It needs to be understood that this is just a sport; this is not life. We are comparing human lives to sports; this should never be done..." "It is a very unfortunate situation. The problem has been ongoing for years. From Pulwama to Pahalgam to Pathankot to all the numerous terrorist attacks. No Indian has forgotten this...You want to play India vs Pakistan match in such a situation. I have never been anti-sports, I have been a Cricket player and I am a Sports Minister. I had said that on a personal front, I am boycotting the India vs Pakistan match as well as Asia Cup because I cannot watch this. It needs to be understood that this is just a sport; this is not life. We are comparing human lives to sports, this should never be done. Only the families of those who die in the line of duty while defending the nation and innocent civilians who are killed in terrorist attacks can understand this. So, I feel this should not have happened..."

Deputy First Minister Emma Little-Pengelly BL said her party had asked the Health Minister to “bring forward proposals that are based on evidence”.
